If it were my dog, I'd never use the gaff on the left, but the boat hook on the right.

But hey, it's your dog. Do whatever you think's right.

They are both gaffs.

I believe I explained last summer that I found the nose part of my boat hook (orange tip) would get jammed as I placed the hook part around the horn of small cleats on the launch rafts, docks etc and pulled myself closer..which changed the angle of the hook to dock and boat.
I really like using the gaff.. no jamb problems.

If this doesn't make things clearer, you two are on your own.


Your thoughtfulness is appreciated. I'd still use the boat hook for hooking a dog's collar - just in
case I missed. But, I'm probably a lot older than you and don't have the quick reflexes that you do.
I'm sure you can keep that hook from getting caught in the dog's fur, ear, or eye.

My god you are stupid.

There are a bunch of dogs I think should have the gaff, on the left, used
on them.

You need the brush that screws on the end of your boat hook, or cut off the
threaded portion. Maybe are bollards are bigger than your cleats as I have
no problem with my boat hook, which looks really similar, except the orange
cap has not been on it in years.
